I wonder how much tea money a coffee shop has to pay?

Is there dual pricing???

Another odd idea.

One would think at universities they might do something more substantial - say a 1 credit course in "Student and Professional Ethics", required in the first semester.

But I digress. tongue.png

How was True Coffee selected? By an impartial biddng process or was there some incentive provided? Were there personal connections, etc?

This is the problem where transparency doesn't exist.

If the UNDP are involved then True Coffee would need to be on the qualified supplier register of the UN, and comply with whatever particular part of the UN procurement procedures applied.

Maybe you should ask them?

Anti-corruption Coffee-shop ... Weird I have to say but TAT can use it to attract a few more million tourists I guess ...

So "tea money" not accepted in the coffee shop ?

Another embarrassing "first" for Thailand, hub of political window dressing and gesture politics. Where will it end? In tears, one suspects. It usually does here.

Excellent, and the fact that they were able to open this in such a prominent location shows that Thailand has had enough of corruption and wants it to stop.

Really??? They are ordering 150,000 pistols for the RTP so there is at least 150,000 of them. Try convincing them that they have had enough of corruption. I am sure they will not agree with you.

"Another 'Corruption Unwelcome' coffee shop is set to be opened at Khon Kaen University in September. It is to be opened in other universities in Thailand as well."

First Ubon, then KK, and lastly and very least, Bangkok, where the least corruption is to be found. Those pesky Redshirts in Isaan need to be taught that their attempts at corruption will not be tolerated...

Or is it just a coincidence?

How about anti-corruption Pizza, I enjoy a slice of anti-corruption pizza now and then but all I can find is corruption Pizza sad.png

The price they charge for bad pizza here is corrupt for sure...

When I read True and anti corruption I couldn't help laughing.. True are part of CP group, the largest conglomerate in Thailand with their fingers in every pie.

And a fairly large Investment in the owners home country (China) as well!

Oh, how I wish that was true, but unfortunately they haven't and they don't.

You guys couldn't pick up the sarcasm?

Sorry, but there are a number of seriously delusional people posting in this forum who think the sun rises in Uncle Too's behind, so it's hard to tell sometimes.

how much one coffee if I don't need the bill?
